I’m staying with a friend for the weekend, but I mustn’t stop progress on my text-based game engine.

    A couple of reasons, really.

    1. I needed an interesting project to experiment with architecture and paradigms.
    2. A strong personal portfolio is great leverage when negotiating professional pay.
    3. I’ve seen the diku source, and all due respect to the godparents, but it’s not a codebase I want to work in. I also want to create a new engine that makes it easier to create extensions that tap into more modern technological advances, like story telling AI.
